HLGU alumni and friends will soon be receiving phone calls from current HLGU students, alumni, faculty, staff, and friends.
The 2022 HLGU Phonathon will be taking place on select nights between April 11 and April 21 from the institutional advancement office on the 4th floor of the Burt Administration building. Calling will take place between 5:30 and 7:30 pm on April 11-14 and 18-21. Callers will be reaching out to both HLGU alumni and previous donors to the institution.

This year’s Phonathon needs volunteers who love HLGU and would like to help make a difference in the lives of HLGU students. All volunteers will be provided with a script and phones for the event, as well as some snacks. Anyone interested in volunteering for the 2022 Phonathon should email Director of Alumni Services Lauren Youse at lauren.youse@hlg.edu.
Callers for the HLGU Phonathon will be focusing on four main areas of need for the University:

Immediate debt reduction
Student aid and scholarships
Faculty retention
Operating expenses

“The greatest impact we can make in this day is to raise up this next generation of students, equip them with the knowledge of a Christian worldview, and set them loose to serve the world wherever God should place them,” said HLGU transitional president Dr. Rodney Harrison. “In such a time as this, the need for friends to financially support HLGU is critical.”
Anyone who would like to give to HLGU can do so online at hlg.edu/giving or call the institutional advancement office at 573-629-3124.

Ms. Amanda Henry book signing
2022-09-22 19:00 - 20:00 | Student Center
Hannibal-LaGrange University professor and alum Amanda Henry has released her debut novel and the first book in the Tokens of Rynar series, The Legacy of the Lost Rider. HLGU is excited to host Ms. Henry at her reading and signing event on Thursday, September 22 at 7 p.m. in the Student Center on campus. This event is open to the public.
The Legacy of the Lost Rider centers around Inesca. After committing herself to a new life as a rider in the Great Races of Rynar, Inesca embarks on a perilous journey to reclaim the truth about her father’s past. Her choices lead her to navigate a dangerous world of covetous lords and elusive mercenaries with only a few clues to guide her. Inesca strives to balance her quest of seeking a knight known to her father with the challenge of competing in the formidable races of Rynar, understanding that if she fails, then she will lose her beloved stallion, Nycor.
The Legacy of the Lost Rider may be purchased online at Amazon or through the publisher, WestBow Press. Learn more at the author’swebsite, sharingtokens.com.
